Right basically just as the thread title says. I've got a quick question for any MOT testers out their.
When i had my MOT done a couple of years ago it came with the brake test efficiency sheet( which i've just found), that says how much weight is on front/ rear axle and n/s or o/s so a bit like corner weights from the looks of it.
They seem to be fairly accurate weights as its got my total vehicle weight at 1099kg (So no rounding up / down from the looks of it).
But what i really wanted to know is, is this actually my vehicles weight or do they add 75kg for a driver for the calculations?
As i've had a brief look at the MOT testing manual but it seems a bit vague, for class 4 (cars) it says add 140kg's for driver / fuel / crap before calculating braking efficiency. So do they weigh the car with a person in before the brakes are tested or not?
Sorry if thats a bit of a ramble. Cheers for looking guys!
